I’ve installed this plugin and I’ve been able to upload images but thumbnails aren’t being generated. They come up as question marks in both the admin area and the gallery page. I’ve attached the output file of the install and a couple of screen shots.

Do I need another plugin?

Hi,

I’m running MODx 2.0.4-pl2 with Gallery 1.0.1 rc2. When I try to update to Gallery 1.0.2-rc1, the installation process is stuck:

In the MODx error log, I see the following message:

[2010-12-27 09:33:11] (ERROR @ /mnt/web8/22/46/51852746/htdocs/modx_revo/core/xpdo/compression/xpdozip.class.php : 142) PHP warning: ZipArchive::extractTo() [<a href='ziparchive.extractto'>ziparchive.extractto</a>]: File exists

Here’s the system information:

SunOS localhost 5.10 Generic_139556-08 i86pc
PHP Version 5.2.14
MySQL Support	enabled
Client API version 	5.0.91 
PDO Driver for MySQL, client library version	5.0.91

Could you please help me with this problem?

Update

I found out that MODx creates the file 4515ee1087609ed093d38dc273f158b6.0.preserved.zip with a size of 20M, then it is stuck. The directory assets/components/gallery contains 2149 files with a total size of 247M.

I copied my MODx installation to a test system running Ubuntu 10.10 and I was able to update Gallery without any problems. Could the problem be caused my some PHP settings? I also noticed on my Ubuntu system that MODx keeps the file 4515ee1087609ed093d38dc273f158b6.0.preserved.zip after the update. Since my Gallery content is quite large, I would like to know if there is a way to clean up the old versions of Gallery after the update has finished successfully?

Very cool and easy to set up!
Where do I disable or comment out the download original link?

I was wondering about the caching of the images with phpthumb. I have been getting high cpu usage when using phpthumb and read that even if the image is cached it still has run the script to find that out. Has gallery got the option to check if a file exits before running the phpthumb script to see if I can reduce the cpu load?

One wishlist item for me is a way to say which image from a certain gallery should be used as the thumbnail when listing all of the galleries.

One vote for this here!

Gallery has problems, when having a description with " or ". If you have a " you can upload the picture, but when you use the description it is not encoded and creates a wrong title field in my case.

<div class="[[+cls]]">
    <a href="[[+image]]" rel="prettyPhoto[[[+album]]]" title="[[+description]]">
        <img class="[[+imgCls]]" src="[[+thumbnail]]" alt="[[+name]]" />
    </a>
</div>

You can see this in the first picture of http://www.efflorescos.de/news/2008/31.05./01.06.2008.html

When using " the image upload will never stop. But when entering manager again, the image is part of the gallery.

Hi

I just installed the gallery transport package on Revo 2.0.7. The installation went fine, but then in the frontend the following error appeared:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method modResponse::addLangTopic() in C:\xampp\htdocs\mysite\core\cache\elements\modplugin\17.include.cache.php on line 28

I reinstalled it with the same result.

After I commented this line out in the plugin, frontend access worked again:

* assign gallery lang to JS */
// $modx->response->addLangTopic(’gallery:tv’);

... but then in my GalleryItem Custom TV everything is more or less blank and without function.

I thought first, it will only need a german version of the language files, so I copied the english one and named it "de", but this didn’t help either. Then I changed the manager and frontend language back to english. Still I am getting only this error message in the frontend.

Any idea?

Thomas,

That sounds like your Revo upgrade did not fully upgrade. Reupload all the files, and try again. Try the traditional distribution rather than the advanced.

Thanks for quick answer. I reinstalled revo 2.0.7 and Gallery again.
Still the error remained.
Then I uninstalled a few extras, when I uninstalled Upfront Editor, the Fatal Error was gone.

Anyone else has this combination running successfully ?

PS: I will give them a note anyway on the upfront website.
